Hello there!
Last week I started brewing my first batch of beer, I chose Cooper's Wheat hopped extract and followed the instructions. However, there are no bubbles in my airlock, when I checked it I could smell the beer and it smells like bread dough and also my hidrometer readings haven't changed a bit (started at O.G.=1.0031 and today (a week after) it is at 1.0030). It is fermenting at 75.2ºF (24ºC) in a dark quiet environment at constant temperature.
Should I keep waiting or is it ruined? I read somewhere that I could shake it a bit, what do you think?
Thank you very much!
